Chapter 29 Encountering the BOSS
It seems that good things are always guarded by bosses. Judging from this, this giant monster must be a boss-level monster. Ye Feng took out the Cave-Ming Grass that he had prepared in advance to check the information of the giant monster in front of him.

Anriel (Demon)

Rating: 19
Anriel is one of the most terrifying demons from ancient times. According to ancient records, Anriel is the queen who reigns over pain and torment.

Attack: Unknown

Defense: Unknown

Aside from a brief introduction, with no details about its attack or defense, Ye Feng was basically certain that the Anriel before him was undoubtedly a BOSS monster. Only with BOSS monsters could the Cave-Ming Grass not be able to detect enemy information.

It seems I must truly understand the monster's abilities in battle.

"What should we do, Ye Feng? Should we still go up and get the Power Fruit?" Shi Lei was clearly reluctant to part with the Power Fruit, but the presence of the giant monster above him made him very uneasy, and he couldn't make up his mind for a moment.

"Let's go! There's something good right in front of us, we have to give it a try. You cover me." After making up his mind, Ye Feng decided to have Shi Lei provide cover so they could go up and see what this BOSS was capable of.

Ye Feng slowly walked towards the Power Fruit. Anriel above his head seemed to be asleep, but Ye Feng didn't believe the BOSS would be completely unresponsive. He remained vigilant, constantly alert to Anriel's attacks.

Ye Feng, who had originally entered with only a tentative mindset, gave up the idea of ​​actively attacking the BOSS. After all, although he was only level 18, the BOSS's combat power was not comparable to that of ordinary monsters.

Having made up his mind, Ye Feng simply kept an eye on the BOSS's movements. If he could take out the power-enhancing fruit inside without alerting the BOSS, and there might be many good things in those stone coffins as well. If he could get them all, that would be a good result.

Ye Feng did not use stealth. On the one hand, he was unsure if stealth would be effective against a monster that was higher level than him and was also a BOSS. On the other hand, Ye Feng also intended to hold back in front of Shi Lei and not to show off too much.

"Watch out!" Shi Lei suddenly shouted from behind.

Ye Feng's attention never left the Anriel BOSS. When the demon monster suddenly attacked, Ye Feng reacted quickly, leaping backward to dodge Anriel's claws.

"Boom!" Anriel's claws missed Ye Feng and instead pierced the ground, creating a loud noise.

If he got hit by that, he'd probably be dead on the spot, Ye Feng thought to himself. With his low health and thin skin, he probably couldn't withstand such a powerful attack.

Thinking about this, Ye Feng also had the idea of ​​backing down. This BOSS was still too dangerous at the moment, and it was probably best not to touch it.

Just as Ye Feng was preparing to retreat back to the cave, he suddenly discovered that his retreat route was blocked, and the entrance to the cave where the two had entered was now covered with thick spider webs.

With their escape route blocked, the two are now completely trapped here, meaning they must face the BOSS's challenge head-on.

"What do we do? This guy is lying in ambush on us. He pretended not to see us earlier, probably waiting for us to come in." Shi Lei also realized the situation. After all, the entrance was very small, and the spider's huge body probably couldn't fit through, so he waited for the two of them to come in before blocking the entrance.

"No matter what, we have to fight this battle, or we'll both become this guy's dinner."

Anriel paid no attention to what the two were saying. As they spoke, he launched several more attacks with his claws, forcing the two to dodge repeatedly. After a few rounds, the two dared not communicate any more and devoted themselves to the battle.

Hiding like this isn't a solution; we must find a way to get closer.

Ye Feng decisively took flight, no longer dodging on the ground, and took the initiative to meet the enemy.

Claws attacked from the air, but Ye Feng dodged left and right, finally arriving in front of Anriel. Without hesitation, he thrust his sword down. This thrust used the Triple Thrust skill, capable of dealing three times the damage.

The sword pierced Anriel's abdomen. The abdomen is a weak point for spider-like monsters, and Ye Feng chose the abdomen as the attack point in order to cause greater damage.

After the attack, Anriel let out a strange cry, clearly indicating that the attack had injured it.

Ye Feng was overjoyed; the fact that it could be produced meant that he could kill this guy.

Following the strange cry, several green orbs of light erupted from Anriel's body. Ye Feng, who was standing nearby, was caught off guard and knocked to the ground.

Seeing Ye Feng fall to the ground, Anlier had no intention of letting go. He descended from the sky, his sharp claws about to pierce through Ye Feng's body.

Fortunately, Shi Lei suddenly arrived in front of Ye Feng, grabbed Ye Feng and rolled to the ground, narrowly avoiding the attack.

Ye Feng, after getting up again, found that his health was dropping rapidly, and upon closer inspection, he realized that he was poisoned.

It seems that the green orb from before still had a poisoning effect. I quickly took out an antidote from my bag and drank it, which finally relieved the poisoning and stopped my health from dropping rapidly.

The antidote in the package has also entered cooldown mode, so it seems that it won't be usable for a while. If I get poisoned, it could be a disaster.

He then drank a red bottle from the package, restoring some of his health.

Upon re-examining the BOSS's status, Ye Feng was speechless. Although he had been hit by Ye Feng's triple stab, the BOSS's health had dropped by less than one-tenth.

Keep in mind that one attack was already a struggle; if it happened a few more times, he would probably be the one to die before Anriel did.

Using the Cave-Piercing Grass again, Ye Feng discovered that Anriel's BOSS data had been updated. Anriel (Demon) in an incomplete state.

Rating: 19
Attack: Anriel's sharp claws can tear apart any enemy it catches, and its body also produces toxins to attack enemies.

Defense: If an incomplete Anriel is placed under the control of a fear monster, Anriel will also perish once the fear monster is destroyed. It is recommended to prioritize eliminating the fear monster.

A fear monster? Ye Feng looked up and saw that after Anriel left, there was still a black, writhing monster left where he had been.

He took out the Cave-Dwelling Grass and examined it again. Sure enough, this guy was the terrifying monster that controlled the powerful Anriel, but this monster itself had no abilities whatsoever.

An opportunity has come; this is a rare chance to eliminate Amriel.

"Shi Lei, you hold them off for a bit, I'll take care of this guy," Ye Feng shouted.

Anriel's claws have launched another attack, and even if Ye Feng doesn't shout, Shi Lei will be busy dealing with it.

Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Shi Lei did not back down but instead moved closer to Anlier, hoping to attract Anlier's attention and create an opportunity for Ye Feng.

However, under Anlier's attacks, Shi Lei could only dodge and defend, and had no chance to retaliate at all.

After advancing to within three meters of Anlier, Shi Lei dared not go any further. If he did, he would be in danger, and Anlier's previous poison attack had also made him very wary.

Shi Lei had successfully completed his mission, and at this moment, Anlier's attention was mostly focused on Shi Lei.

At the same time, Shi Lei was also highly focused. If he were to be careless for even a moment, he might be directly stabbed by the sharp claws.

Seeing this, Ye Feng immediately used stealth, since Shi Lei shouldn't be paying attention to his situation right now, and stealth would also prevent Anriel from discovering him immediately.

As expected, Ye Feng passed through the previous section smoothly and was about to arrive in front of the terrifying monster.

Suddenly, Anriel changed direction and launched a poison ball towards Ye Feng.

Ye Feng didn't want to experience the poisoning again, so he immediately and decisively dispelled his stealth and dodged the poison ball.

It seems we've been discovered after all; sneaking up to the terrifying monster and attacking it is probably out of the question.

Since we can't get close, we'll have to attack from a distance!

Ye Feng immediately decided to use Fireball to launch a long-range attack. Anriel was about to return to his position, and the opportunity was fleeting. If he didn't seize this chance, he probably wouldn't have another one.

After dodging the attack in mid-air, Ye Feng lost control of his body and had no chance to control his position, so he fired several fireballs in quick succession at a high difficulty.

Once the shot was fired, Ye Feng knew he had hit the target; this demonstrated his confidence in his actions.

After the firelight subsided, the terrifying monster vanished, and Anriel stopped moving, its massive body crashing to the ground and slowly disappearing.

Having succeeded, Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief, slowly regained his balance, and landed on the ground.

Looking at the ground, Ye Feng saw a stone that had burst open. He picked it up and saw that it was a rune stone, which was a good thing.

Like gems, rune stones can be socketed into equipment to increase various attributes. Although the attributes they increase vary, the difference between runes and gems is not the essential difference. The real difference is that rune stones can be socketed into equipment in a certain order to trigger some hidden effects and abilities.

Looking at the rune stone in his hand, Ye Feng noticed a strange pattern on it. He knew this was a unique pattern found only on the No. 1 rune stone.

Shi Lei's attention was completely focused on the Power Fruit, and he didn't notice the Rune Stone that Ye Feng had picked up. Even if he had seen it, Shi Lei probably wouldn't have known its use. Ye Feng naturally wouldn't say anything and decisively put the Rune Stone away.

Shi Lei picked up the Power Fruits, kept a few for himself, and threw the rest to Ye Feng.

Ye Feng picked it up and saw that it was a Power Fruit, which could increase experience points. It seemed to be something used to level up, but unfortunately it was marked that it could only be used by those below level 20.

After his journey through the forbidden area and the cave, Ye Feng has gloriously leveled up to level 20 just now, at the same time as he killed Anriel.

Now that he has reached level 20, power fruits and the like are no longer useful to Ye Feng.

"Keep it, it's good for increasing your spiritual power." Ye Feng was prepared to give all the power fruits to Shi Lei, after all, this guy had contributed a lot in the cave this time.

"Forget it, good things should be shared. Besides, this stuff is only useful for those below the Spirit Realm level. A few of these are enough for me; any more would be useless." Shi Lei generously declined the cultivation fruits that Ye Feng wanted to give him.

"Alright, since you don't want it, I'll keep it myself. I might need it someday." Ye Feng put the cultivation fruit into his bag as well, and then began to pay attention to the stone coffins in front of him...
